Also for AMAx presently does not support Hard Drives, but according to the developers hard drive support WILL be included in the upgrade. There are also public domain hacks (I don't know exactly where) that will allow you to use a hard drive with the present version of AMax. >those of you w/ Amax and an Apple (clone) drive, you can place a disk in >one of the amiga drives and format it to the full 800K of a normal Mac >disk.
